Updating position of SortableJS + Rails Form

Asked 2021-Dec-01 at 23:30

I've seen a lot of tutorials around using Rails + SortableJS and updating the position of an object via Ajax - however, I'm using SortableJS inside a Rails form with hidden fields that contain the "position" attribute.

How can I update all of the elements of a Sortable group after one has been moved?

QUESTION

How to handle drag and drop between multiple lists using SortablejS and acts_as_list gem?

Asked 2020-Apr-01 at 14:56

I've been searching for a day and a half for a solution.

I've got several tables (Categories) that allow the user to drag and drop each row (Item) to reorder the position of each item on that table (Category). I'm using SortableJS to handle the drag and drop, and I have it so that reordering within the same Category works.

On my backend I've got a Rails API that uses Jbuilder to return JSON, and am using the acts_as_list gem to handle the positions for me.

I'm having issues figuring out how to handle the reorder when I drag an Item from Category A to Category B. I believe the issue lies in the controller action and my inability to come up with a solution to receive updates for multiple categories, and then return the updated category's positions with Jbuilder. Some help would be greatly appreciated!

acts_as_list allows you to set the new scope parameter and position of a list item, then just save the item and the item will be moved out of the old scope and into the new scope at the position you desire automatically (using after_save callbacks).

In this regard, you should be able to just do that, then freshly fetch the items in each of your two scopes and return them to your front end for updating your display.

acts_as_list on has_many :through and sortablejs

Asked 2020-Mar-25 at 05:51

I have a fairly large question that I've been unable to resolve after a full day of reading articles, documentation and other Stack questions. At this point it's just messing with my mind!

I have an app that is Vue/Vuetify on the frontend with a data-table that I want to be able to reorder with sortablejs. On the backend, I have a Rails API that I'd like to use the acts_as_list gem to handle reordering for me.

Ideally I'd be able to call something like Category.first.items.last.move_higher, however because I have a join model I'm having to put acts_as_list and the position column on the join model instead of the Item model. Is there a better way to arrange this?

category.rb

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Mar-25 at 05:51

With that structure you'll definitely need to reorder by calling methods on the join model. You can however use the Rails delegate class method to delegate reordering methods to the join model if you like:

https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/Module.html#method-i-delegate

All of this assumes that you need items and categories to have a has_and_belongs_to_many type relationship.

Vulnerabilities

No vulnerabilities reported

Install acts_as_list

There are a couple of changes of behaviour from 0.8.0 onwards:.
If you specify add_new_at: :top, new items will be added to the top of the list like always. But now, if you specify a position at insert time: .create(position: 3), the position will be respected. In this example, the item will end up at position 3 and will move other items further down the list. Before 0.8.0 the position would be ignored and the item would still be added to the top of the list. #220
acts_as_list now copes with disparate position integers (i.e. gaps between the numbers). There has been a change in behaviour for the higher_items method. It now returns items with the first item in the collection being the closest item to the reference item, and the last item in the collection being the furthest from the reference item (a.k.a. the first item in the list). #223
Or, from the command line:.

When using this gem in an app with a high amount of concurrency, you may see "deadlock" errors raised by your database server. It's difficult for the gem to provide a solution that fits every app. Here are some steps you can take to mitigate and handle these kinds of errors.
